Description

本発明は、通信機器や電気機器や電子機器に使用されるシェルやコネクタに関するもので、特に、少なくとも２個以上の嵌合口を有するシェルの連結構造に関するものである。   The present invention relates to shells and connectors used in communication devices, electrical devices, and electronic devices, and more particularly to a shell connection structure having at least two fitting ports.

コネクタは、一般的に、少なくとも金属製の複数のコンタクトと該コンタクトが配列・保持される絶縁物であるハウジングとを有するコネクタ本体と、該コネクタ本体を覆うシェルとを備えている。前記シェルには接続対象物（相手コネクタや基板や光トランシーバやモジュールやカード等）が入る嵌合口が設けられている。前記コンタクトは、前記接続対象物と接触する接触部と前記ハウジングに保持される固定部と基板に半田付けされる接続部を有している。このようなコネクタを複数配置したいという要求がでてきている。
複数配置された特許文献として、特許文献１（ＵＳ７，３５７，６７３ Ｂ２）や特許文献２（ＵＳ７，４４５，５５４ Ｂ２）と特許文献３（ＵＳ６，５５８，１９１ Ｂ２）を示す。 The connector generally includes a connector main body having at least a plurality of metal contacts and a housing that is an insulator in which the contacts are arranged and held, and a shell that covers the connector main body. The shell is provided with a fitting port into which a connection object (a mating connector, a substrate, an optical transceiver, a module, a card, or the like) is inserted. The contact includes a contact portion that comes into contact with the connection object, a fixed portion that is held by the housing, and a connection portion that is soldered to the substrate. There is a demand for arranging a plurality of such connectors.
Patent Document 1 (US7,357,673 B2), Patent Document 2 (US7,445,554 B2) and Patent Document 3 (US6,558,191 B2) are shown as a plurality of patent documents arranged.
